My name is Nalin Desai & currently I reside in Hillsborough, NJ, USA. I grew up in Kampala from 1947 thru 1964. Did my senior high school graduation from Kololo High School. I did stay in Toronto Canada for 15 years & had a privilege to talk to our Headmaster (when I was Kololo Student) Mr. D.J.Rawal in Toronto. I would love to hear from any of my classmates (Class of 1960-1964). Our family was in Kampala for long time. Dad's name Kikubhai Desai, was operating Desai & Co next door to Bombay Co. Uncle Dolatbhai was GM at R.O.Hamilton Co & Kampala DP councilman. Please help. Look forward to positive response

Hi. My name is Indira Tandon (nee Sanghani) and I was a pupil at kololo school from 1963-68. I am trying to trace Nafisa Kassam and Almas Punja, who were pupils with me in Kololo school. We parted in 1972 and I believe that they are both in Canada. I would also like to trace Mrs Malik, Mr Thompson, Mr Anderson and Mr Barrow, who were my teachers. Please contact me at my hotmail address: indiratandon@hotmail.com. Anybody else who remembers me from that time, please get in touch with me.
Regards, Indira
